Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1401

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't really want to hear what Zhu Yuxuan had to say; what he wanted to do most right now was to send Zhu Yuxuan back.

Upon returning home, Lijiu went straight to bed and covered herself with the blankets. Several midwives and doctors were arranged nearby, and servants prepared hot ginger soup.

This ensures that Zhu Yuxuan won't catch a cold from getting wet in the rain, and that the baby in her womb is also safe.

But now, he had to suppress his anxiety and let Zhu Yuxuan continue to kneel in front of him and speak.

After all, Zhu Yuxuan had already been caught in the rain, and if they were to force her to go home again, it would definitely provoke her.

She was already exposed to rain and wind, and then she became emotionally agitated and struggled violently. How could the baby in her womb possibly survive?

Although it's still cold outside, as long as the girl stops struggling, that's all that matters.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was no longer forcing him to leave, Zhu Yuxuan breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said:

"Father, you know how capable my husband is. All those new things produced by the Academy of Sciences are thanks to my husband alone..."

Zhu Yuxuan then continued the description, mainly to demonstrate Wei Wu's abilities and knowledge, as well as the things he pioneered.

Any one of these items would be enough to make the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion incredibly wealthy; there was no need to do something so dangerous.

Of course, this also includes Wei Wu's contributions and achievements to the development of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang was incredibly annoyed. He knew all of what Zhu Yuxuan was saying and agreed with everything he said.

There's no need for Zhu Yuxuan to say anything, and now is not the time to talk about these things. The most important thing now is to go back and lie down.

But he couldn't interrupt, fearing that Zhu Yuxuan would become agitated again in despair, so he could only listen silently.

At the same time, just as Zhu Yuxuan and Zhu Yuanzhang were talking, a figure rushed into Kunning Palace.

Ignoring the obstruction of the palace servants around him, he sped towards the main gate of Kunning Palace at top speed.

According to the rules of the palace, such behavior would at least be punished as an offense against the empress, and in serious cases, it would be treated as an assassination.

But the person running showed no hesitation, quickly reaching the front of Kunning Palace, where he slid to his knees at the palace entrance and shouted loudly:

"Your Majesty, I have something urgent to report! Your Majesty, I have something urgent to report!"

It wasn't until this person knelt at the palace gate and shouted that the palace staff who were trying to stop him realized that he was actually a eunuch.

Upon hearing his shouts, the palace servants understood why he was so unruly, daring to run around in Kunning Palace.

However, even though they knew he had come to report, the palace servants around him did not let their guard down and instead all gathered around.

Before Empress Ma confirmed that the person was not dangerous, they would not allow him to get close to her.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long before Empress Ma appeared in front of the main hall.

Upon seeing the eunuch kneeling outside the palace gate, Empress Ma immediately looked at the others and waved her hand.

"Alright, all of you, leave!"

"Yes, Queen!"

Upon receiving Empress Ma's decree, the surrounding palace servants quickly dispersed and continued with their own work.

After the palace servants left, Empress Ma looked at the kneeling eunuch and couldn't help but feel uneasy.

This person was someone she specifically assigned to keep an eye on at the Fengxian Hall. He wouldn't come to see her unless it was something very important.

Since he had come, it meant that something must have happened at Fengxian Hall, so he immediately asked.

"But what happened to His Majesty?"

Upon hearing this, the kneeling eunuch quickly shook his head, then immediately spoke:

"Your Majesty, it's not that His Majesty has something to do, but Princess Weiyang has gone to Fengxian Hall and is currently kneeling in front of the hall pleading for the Duke of Zhenguo!"
